A bunch of egg producers in the US just got a judgement forcing them to pay a paltry fine and donate some eggs. However, the judge's ruling did nothing to stop the existing price fixing still ongoing...
What really annoys me about this stuff that has "high protein" and whatnot written on the packaging is that a lot of it only has, like, 8g of protein per 100g. They just write "protein" on it because it's a nice buzz word. Meanwhile, my dried soy chunks are 50% protein and come in a plain, transparent plastic bag

The conspiracy theorist this week: "The government is bulking us up with protein."
me, going to the grocery store
eggs, $20/pack
The conspiracy theorist next week: "They're trying to deprive us of cheap eggs to make us weak enough to seize by force."

between shit like that and my state putting new restrictions on SNAP purchases, I honestly think they really are trying to kill us poor bastards off

I think they want unrest so they can declare martial law and have unprecedented powers

Just the cost of doing business. They don't plan on changing.
